Step Up. Stand Out. Lead the Future of Logistics. Are you an ambitious, career-driven (Rail) Transport Planner ready to take the next decisive step in your logistics career? This is not just another planning role. This is a genuine opportunity to join one of the UK's fastest-growing and most progressive supply chain and distribution businesses - a company where commitment, performance, and drive are recognised and rewarded with real career advancement into senior and leadership roles. Why This Opportunity Stands Out You'll be joining a highly respected, expanding transport operation based in Felixstowe, known for its year-on-year growth and bold expansion plans. The culture is simple but powerful: "Make things happen." If you're coachable, commercially aware, and hungry to progress, this business will actively develop and support your journey into more senior positions within transport and logistics management. Hard work here doesn't go unnoticed - it accelerates careers. The Role As Transport Planner, you'll thrive in a fast-paced, high-energy environment where no two days are the same. Key responsibilities include: Optimising rail traffic plans to ensure efficient, and reliable operations driven by utilisation and profitability Proactively resolving unforeseen challenges with minimal operational impact Managing customer expectations with professionalism and confidence Engaging with stakeholders at all levels across the business Identifying opportunities for continuous improvement within transport operations Supporting operational efficiency across rail, container logistics and multimodal movements (experience in these areas is highly desirable) This role would particularly suit someone with exposure to container logistics and/or multimodal transport operations with a focus on rail, who understands the complexities of time-sensitive movements and thrives on solving logistical challenges. Who We're Looking For We are seeking a professional who is: Ambitious and career-oriented Energetic and resilient under pressure Solutions-focused and proactive Commercially aware with strong client engagement skills Flexible and willing to go the extra mile Passionate about building a long-term career within logistics Most importantly, you must want progression. This role is designed for someone who sees transport planning as a stepping stone to senior operational leadership. The Career Path With continued rapid expansion, opportunities for advancement are very real. High performers can expect: Structured development and mentoring Increasing operational responsibility Leadership opportunities as the business grows Exposure to wider supply chain and distribution strategy If you are ready to commit, the business is ready to invest in you. The Package Competitive starting salary (up to 37K) Performance-related bonus Car or car allowance (following probation) ( 7K) Contributory pension Annual salary review Strong long-term career progression prospects Supportive, ambitious and growth-focused culture The role would suit an experienced Transport Planning professional within logistics / container transport planning. The position is offered on a Mon to Fri (7am to 5pm) basis. If you're driven, determined, and ready to build a serious career in logistics - apply without delay.
